Pattern
Baby hats and blankets may be made in any knit, crochet or quilt pattern you choose.

Color
Yarn: Please use white and solid pastel colors. Avoid dark colors and variegated yarn. We have found that mothers of baby boys prefer items without ANY pink or peach. With this in mind, please do not mix blue with pink or peach. When using up "scrap" yarn, mix and match colors carefully.

Material
Please use kid prints and solid colors as described above.

Weight
Baby weight or knitting worsted weight washable yarn works best for baby hats. Please avoid bulky yarn and do not use wool yarn.

Size

• Hats: We use a variety of sizes for babies from a micro-preemie to full term babies.
  
  • Make sure the last row is not tight, it needs to stretch.
  • Width: When laid flat, the hat should measure between 3 and 6 inches.
  • Length: When laid flat, the length should be half an inch shorter or equal to the width. If the hat is long, it can be cuffed up.
• Blankets:
  
  • Minimum 12 x 12 inches. Maximum 36 x 36 inches.

Pom-poms
Pom-poms and ribbons add a nice touch to hats but are not mandatory.
